The second important step is the blood testing of cattle in those areas where calfhood vaccination has been in effect for a num- ber of years. Through this programme, the incidence of Brucellosis in the cattle population will be reduced substantially. This will pre- vent heavy economic losses when blood testing and slaughtering ‘of infected cattle becomes effective. YOU WILL, TOO, WHEN YOU SEE THE AEROQUIP HOSES AND COUPLINGS The objective is a Brucellosis-free Province. 5 : Prepare for the blood testing of your cattle by having all heifer es eo eet sein wo S calves between four and 11 months inoculated with brucella vaccine.
